Another cold strikes my baby!

The day I saw the other toddler who's taken care of by the same Grandma who takes care of Hyzyd that he has cold, I worried that my baby will be infected and he is!

Hyzyd sleeps late tonight. My heart hurts seeing him suffering. There's no cure for the common cold but I did my best to make my baby recover and make him more comfortable as he works through the infection. I provided him plenty of fluids-water is the best!I keep his nasal passages as clear as I can by wiping away snot frequently. I do it very gently.I let him sleep with an elevated head- I put something under his mattress. I hope it will keep him comfortable this night. I believe that a good rest is important to speedy recovery.

A cold is not fun but on the other side of the coin I can take comfort from the fact that the exposure to these viruses helps my baby develop his immune system to help him stave off more infections in the future. Will you agree with me?

    I agree, sis. And just so you know I think you are one wonderful, sweet mom. I hope your baby recovers from the cold soon. He's very lucky to have you as his mom.

advantages of using ergo baby carriers

I really find it very convenient to have a baby carrier . I could get things done around the house. I could do my rounds on shopping. We could eat in a restaurant without any hassles. I like Hyzyd to be held all the time while I'm at home on weekends and at the same time doing some minimal household chores. I read from the Baby Book of William and Martha Shears that using a baby carrier reduces crying and colic. A 1986 study of 99 mother-infant pairs (reported in Pediatrics) showed that carrying babies at least three hours a day reduces crying and fussing 43% during the day and 51% at night. Babies are happier because they have less need to cry, and parents enjoy their babies more as a result. This simply explains why Hyzyd is a happy baby. I don't have a problem with him. Carrying my baby promotes bonding and enhances my feelings of competence as a parent. A higher frequency of feeding and touching stimulates mothering hormones, and frequent carrying encourages and speeds the

on your 17 months...

On your 17th months Hyzyd (it was last March 23) , it's pretty obvious that you love DRUMS! Do you want to be a drummer someday ? Every time we walked in the church you point first on the drums on stage and sometimes when your dad is playing there during the Praise and Worship service, you also wanted to be there with him! You cried and scream to get your way, which I find embarrassing my son ...so we end up staying in the office the whole time watching your dad plays the guitar through a window. We know that you love to "bang" those drum sets but we need to let you understand that you can play the drums after the service. You use to wake up late in the morning like 8:30 to 9:00 am but when your dad plays on the computer the Hillsongs' drum tutorial, you surely wake up to watch the video too! So, that's what I'm going to do tomorrow to let you wake up at 7:00 am because I'm going to bring you to school. We don't have class but we still need to sign in.
